I saw this upon release. It was one of Nolte's first movies after "Rish Man, Poor Man " made him a star. Good movie. - @Friday, September 22, 2017 2:58 AM

I started thinking of Vietnam vets and their unique intense character which triggered the memory of this great movie. Perhaps TCM will run it. Hmmmm think I"ll request this wonderful film> - @Wednesday, July 13, 2016 6:31 PM

Dad took me to this when I was 8. To this day I can't hear that CCR song without feeling mildly haunted by Nick Nolte, white powder and railroad tracks. - @Tuesday, May 3, 2016 1:38 AM

its more likely converse was in vietnam as a civilian journalist and struck up a friendship with hicks who was in uniform. - @Saturday, April 16, 2011 9:00 AM
